I like 'em. Looks like you're going fast just sitting there. I'm not so sure about the "pickup truck mud flap naked lady silhouette" in the rear window though.

Not a fan of flame jobs on vehicles. The only one I like, is the one Jessy James has on his black Chev pickup. Those realistic flames that actually looks like a real fire. Not sure how to better describe it. You'd know what I'm talking aboot if you've seen the truck I'm making reference to.
And yes....the trucker girls on the rear are beyond outdated and tacky......but hey......that's just my opinion. Sorry if it's a little negative, but you did ask.
Cheerio,

I agree with FloridaChris -- I LOVE how cool those white flames on the black MINI with white roof -- very original!!!

(P.S. FloridaChris -- LOVE your signature!!!!!!!)

I think it has gotten to the point that since everyone is "customizing" their cars to look unique that it in turn actually makes them all look alike. Adding the typical graphics and stuffed animals to your car doesnt always make it unique. It seems that you will have to make a pretty big step to get to unique at this point with a mini.

With that being said, as long as you are doing what YOU want to your car, rock on.

sadgit - - - now you need a rifle rack with a shotgun and a 30-30 in that back window to go with the mudflap girl!

But RallyMINI is right. As long as you like what you've done, who cares what others think. Everyone has their own tastes. That why 'they' say, "to each their own."
Cheers,

If you don't care what others think you shouldn't title your post "What do you think of my....."

Like the flames (not the 'trucker girl decals'), first time I've seen them on another MINI.

Here's my version:


do you think my flames are faster?
I do think they go well with white wheels.

Mine are removable (magnetic).

Cheers, and flame on!!!!

No offense guys, but I think flames should be reserved for choppers and hot rods...

Or atleast a modified MINI, so it atleast has some speed to justify flames

SWEET! Love the flames. I also love MGBGT's flames, which I have seen in person. I love the idea of them being removable.
